10 The fields are destroyed,
^kthe ground mourns,
because ^lthe grain is destroyed,
^mthe wine dries up,
the oil languishes.
11 ⁿBe ashamed, ^{▼▼The Hebrew words for dry up and be ashamed in verses 10–12, 17 sound alike} O tillers of the soil;
wail, O vinedressers,
for the wheat and the barley,
^pbecause the harvest of the field has perished.
12 The vine dries up;
^qthe fig tree languishes.
Pomegranate, palm, and apple,
all the trees of the field are dried up,
and ^rgladness dries up
from the children of man.
